www.theguardian.com
Ukraine’s energy facilities attacked hours after Putin agreed to halt strikes on such targets in a call with US presidentRussia-Ukraine war – latest news updates

Summary

Hours after Trump and Putin agreed to halt attacks on energy infrastructure, Russia launched drone and missile strikes on Ukraine, damaging homes and injuring civilians.

A hospital in Sumy was hit, forcing evacuations. Ukraine also struck a Russian oil depot. Putin rejected a full ceasefire, demanding an end to Western military aid to Ukraine.

Trump praised the call as “productive,” while Zelenskyy awaited U.S. clarification before responding.

Talks on a broader ceasefire will begin Sunday in Jeddah, but skepticism remains over Russia’s commitment to peace.

      Putin agreed to halt attacks on energy infrastructure

      damaging homes and injuring civilians

      They technically didnt violate the terms i guess, but this is not what was intended i believe.

          I mean they didnt write that in the article from this post that was published 3 hours ago. I assumed it would be up to date, so thanks for the correction. I guess the guardian is just outdated or intentionally misleading then.

            technically it was also not a “violation of ceasefire” because putin said any ceasefire can only happen only after all western military aid and intelligence sharing are stopped. all, not just american. clown shit

          apparently wrong, see other comments

          Nah it says this in the article:

          A Kremlin statement said Putin had issued an order to the Russian military to suspend strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

          I know they arent trustworthy, but if Russia had violated the terms, then the headline would read

          Russia violates terms hours after partial ceasefire…

          and not

          Russia attacks…

      Skepticism rises as to whether the aggressor who could have peace by leaving the invaded country alone actually wants peace. It’s a total mystery.
